MI 390 - Junior Seminar: Theories, Sources and Methods

Credits: 4 credits

Responding to students’ topical and disciplinary interests, this seminar supports juniors in developing skills and gaining familiarity with bodies of knowledge needed to work at an advanced undergraduate level in one or more related fields. Students will identify a methodological approach for capstone work and articulate why this method is appropriate to their aims. They will learn to navigate key terms, theories, and debates related to questions and problems they plan to explore in capstone work. Students will also consider audiences and applications for their work both within and beyond the academic context as they lay a strong foundation for independent interdisciplinary work.

Prerequisite(s)/Course Restrictions: Only open to Self-Designed majors.
